Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Cheese Danish pastries are safe during pregnancy as long as they are fully baked and made with pasteurized cheese. They supply small amounts of calcium and riboflavin, while carrying substantial saturated fats and added sugars. The FDA states that commercial cheese fillings made from pasteurized milk are safe from Listeria contamination. Enjoy a warmed slice occasionally and pair it with fresh berries to add dietary fiber.
